Yeah, '71. That was my first year on the job. Bad year for libraries. Bad year for America. Hippies burning library cards, Abby Hoffman telling everybody to steal books. I don't judge a man by the length of his hair or the kind of music he listens to. Rock was never my bag. But you put on a pair of shoes when you walk into the New York Public Library, fella.

No one buried the board's needles quite like RTB... Probably sent more than a few Optimods to an early grave afterwards.

So many aural treats.

RIP RTB
